Quick Answer
A lash tray label should tell you the curl, thickness, length range, finish, fiber type, SKU and batch code. These details help salons match the tray to the service menu, approve samples, reorder the same product and avoid mixing similar-looking trays.
When reading lash extension trays, do not only look at the product name. Check the label fields that affect the final set: curl shape, lash diameter, row length, finish, material description and batch reference.
Lash Tray Label Fields
| Label field | Example | What it tells you |
|---|---|---|
| Curl | C, CC, D, J, B, LC, L, M | The lift and shape of the set |
| Thickness | 0.03, 0.05, 0.07, 0.10, 0.12, 0.15mm | Whether the tray fits classic, volume or mega volume use |
| Length | 8-15mm mix or 10mm single | The row map or exact length |
| Finish | Matte, soft black, brown, cashmere | The visual texture and color effect |
| Fiber / style | Classic, volume, easy fan, premade | The intended application method |
| SKU | Internal reorder code | Helps repeat the approved item |
| Batch code | Production or approval reference | Helps compare sample and bulk order |
Why Lash Tray Labels Matter
Many lash trays look similar at first glance. Two trays can both be black, soft and full, but one may be 0.05mm volume and another may be 0.15mm classic. A clear label prevents the artist from choosing the wrong tray during a service.
For wholesale lash buyers, label clarity also protects reorder accuracy. If the approved sample says `C Curl / 0.07mm / 8-15mm Mix`, the reorder should match that exact spec unless the buyer intentionally changes the product.
Curl, Thickness and Length
These three fields are the core of the tray label.
| Field | Buying question | Example use |
|---|---|---|
| Curl | Does this match the service menu? | C for everyday lift, CC or D for stronger lift |
| Thickness | Is it classic or volume? | 0.10-0.15mm for classic, 0.03-0.07mm for volume |
| Length | Is it single or mixed? | 8-15mm mix for mapping, 11mm single for refill stock |
If the tray is mixed length, the row map should be easy to read. If the tray is single length, the length should be clear enough for fast salon storage.
Finish, Fiber and Style Names
Finish names help describe the visual effect, but they should not replace the actual technical specs. A tray labeled soft matte still needs curl, thickness and length information. A cashmere-style tray still needs diameter and length details.
For buying and reorder planning, treat style names as support information. The technical label is what keeps the bulk order repeatable.
SKU and Batch Code
The SKU is the reorder shortcut. The batch code is the reference point for sample approval and bulk matching. If a salon approves a sample, record both.
| Record | Why to keep it |
|---|---|
| SKU | Makes reorder faster |
| Batch code | Helps compare sample and bulk production |
| Approval date | Shows when the tray was accepted |
| Artist notes | Captures pickup, strip release and curl feedback |
| Packaging note | Helps private label buyers avoid label confusion |
How To Check A Lash Tray Before Ordering
Use the label as the first check, then test the tray physically.
- Confirm the product type.
- Match curl to the service menu.
- Match thickness to classic or volume use.
- Check length rows or single length labels.
- Review finish and color wording.
- Record SKU and batch code.
- Test pickup, strip release and curl consistency.
Internal Buying Path
- Start from lash extension trays for the full tray category.

- Review cashmere lash trays if finish and softness are important.
- Use Lash Extension Thickness Guide to match diameter to service type.
- Use Mixed Lash Trays vs Single Length Lash Trays to plan inventory.

FAQ
What information should be on a lash tray label?
A lash tray label should show curl, thickness, length, finish, product type, SKU and batch code so salons can match services and reorder accurately.
Why is thickness important on lash extension trays?
Thickness tells the artist whether the tray is suited for classic, volume, mega volume or soft volume work. It also affects density and natural lash load.
What does 8-15mm mix mean on a lash tray?
An 8-15mm mix means the tray includes multiple lengths from 8mm through 15mm. It is useful for lash maps and flexible salon stocking.
Why should salons record batch codes?
Batch codes help compare approved samples with bulk orders and make it easier to investigate any change in curl, pickup, finish or label accuracy.
Is a style name enough for reorder planning?
No. Style names such as matte, cashmere or soft black are useful, but reorder planning should still record curl, thickness, length, SKU and batch code.
